#Trump appointee Mary Lazare, in charge of community living for disabled people, just called for #segregation of #disabled people at a #disability conference. Almost immediate apology from her agency's twitter, but it reveals the underlying #ableist mindset.— David Gillon (@WTBDavidG) July 11, 2018
Mary Lazare: I regret & apologize for my words at #ASAconf18. ACL believes ppl w/disabilities have the right & choice to live in the community. We work to expand those opptys & are 100% committed to that mission. We also recognize Olmstead gives people the right to other choices.— ACLgov (@ACLgov) July 11, 2018
